From the beginning the session was fluid and the dialogue clear (not always easy when it comes to music). Studio is equipped with anything you would need, unless you are an orchestra. I didn't record in the large live room he has available, so I will just speak to what we did. Voice, acoustic/electric guitar, bass (which he kindly let me borrow), some percussion, and samples. I was very impressed with how quickly he captured the acoustic guitar and vocals in iso booth, spot on and much more efficient than even the bigger (i.e. more expensive) studios I have been at. I had a pretty good vision of what I wanted, but Frank really helped guide the song through the editing process like it was his own. He also logged in several hours gratis doing the rough mixing, a huge time saver as I usually end up just sitting around nodding my head when it comes to that stuff. I only planned on one song, but would most definitely return in future. Thank you Frank!

Back in 2015 I booked a full day session with Garrett, the lead engineer at electrokitty to mix and…read moremaster a single track of mine that was featured on a radio show. I was on a deadline and asked if he could finish the production within that same day, since the song was already 90% complete and only needed some analog mixing and mastering. Like myself, Garrett was trained in classical music. He is very talented and has a good ear for adjusting levels, which was the primary problem I needed to fix. The only issue I had was that he was not very welcoming or willing to work with me. I ended up paying him $500 for the 6.5 hours full day studio session, which was supposed to be 8 hours of work...but he took an hour and a half to go eat Thai food. When the day was over, I called him that night and asked if he was willing to put in a bit more time to adjust some of the tracks, since they didn't turn out how I had requested. He texted me back saying "dude it's night time, call me tomorrow." I have never had a sound engineer who had this sort of an attitude towards business, and I have worked with people who have grammies by the way. Every time I texted him and asked if he could fix something, he told me "okay but it will cost you another hour." After asking him numerous times, he was willing to adjust some of the levels, which ran me another $200 extra. All in all, $700 to record 6 measures of backup vocals and to mix and master a song that was already 90% complete was sort of ridiculous. I just feel like he was in it for the money, and had really no interest in producing a quality song. I definitely would not recommend this studio.

Yes I know there's also a Sspul Asylum album called that, I didn't know that at the time of release, wan a fight about it? What, Ever! Anyway, my name is Matty O' by the way, the three songs that owner/founder Gary Reynolds and I produced there were, She Forgot, The Cure For Fear, and the only song of mine that got chosen to make money for anything, my Christmas song, Yuletide Lament. Yes you heard that right, thanks to this very studio, and whatever natural talents I may have, and thanks to a site called songtradr.com my Christmas song I made in this studio was chosen for a YouTube/Radio promotion, and I will be receiving my first payment for it's usage in that, this November 15'th!!! Woo hoo!!! Thanks so much Gary, and also his friend Erik who played drums!!! (I'm wicked sorry I've forgotten his last name) Also, not only that, but if the guitar tone on that song sounds huge, it's only because of Mr. Reynold's production of it, since it was actually only a small Orange tube practice amp, which was basically a better version of the Fender Champ, so that in itself is also an Electrokitty accomplishment. Also, my best vocals on my album were definitely on the song The Cure For Fear, and I must make sure to point out, that none of the vocals on my whole record used or required any pitch correction software of any kind. The only effect on the vocals on the entire record was a little reverb, and I'm really proud of that, especially our results on that particular song, which is my sweet Momma's favorite on the album, and she knows what from good about singing, having just reached 72 and still being the best voice in her church choir! Also he has a really sweet Fender Telecaster which was the only guitar on She Forgot, and it played very well, even for having 10's on it, which I usually don't play. I stick to 9's because they help my hands last longer at shows. So yeah, if you're in the Seattle area, or anywhere, and you want to sound better than anybody, go to this studio!!! Thanks so much for reading, and thanks so much Mr. Gary Reynolds and everyone at Electrokitty Studios!!!

I was quoted 2-3 weeks, when I followed up 2 months later they discovered that the unit had been sitting ready for pickup for a long time and no one reached out to me to tell me it was ready. If I had to guess, it seems like the repair folks are swamped with work and that they're constantly asked to prioritize items that are going to the sales floor over local customer repairs. Sad, this used to be my favorite shop in Seattle. Now it feels like they target the tech-salary or boomer collector over working musicians, and all the charm and relatability is gone. Won't be back.
